Looking at his mother wearing ancient costume, Wei Yang felt a sense of unreality, but also a sense of novelty.

It has to be said that he now understands why Xiao Zhao agreed to let Wang Yunping film the movie. On the one hand, it is not easy to stop the wishes of the elders, but on the other hand, he wants to see the "contrast" of the elders.

Wang Yunping saw that her son didn't say anything and just stared at her. She thought Wei Yang was angry and felt a little guilty for causing trouble and bringing shame to him.

"I just think it's fun. If you don't want to see me take pictures, I won't take them."

"It's okay. I'm fine."

Wei Yang shook his head and flattered: "I just didn't expect my mom to look so beautiful in a costume. I'll take a picture and show it to my dad. It will fascinate him."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Wang Yunping scolded her son, but she looked very happy. She also thought she looked good in ancient costume.

"By the way, have you eaten yet?"

Whenever they see their son, whether it is Wei Shan or Wang Yunping, the first thing they focus on is eating. Wei Yang has long been accustomed to it.

He really hadn't eaten yet and was a little hungry, so he asked Assistant Xiao Zhao to get him a box lunch, and then looked around at the eyes that were paying close attention to him.

"Come with me to eat in the car. It's air-conditioned and cool."

"Just eat here, it's troublesome to run around."

Wang Yunping was too lazy to move, but no one else dared to go against her wishes, so Wei Yang, as her son, didn't have to worry about this.

"It's too hot here. I can't stay here. Come with me to the car. Besides, your makeup is almost ruined. I'll have someone touch it up for you."

"You are used to the air-conditioning and can't stand the hardship. When your father and I were young..."

Although she was nagging, Wang Yunping heard her son complaining about the heat, but still took the lunch box and prepared to follow him. Before leaving, she glanced at Xiao Zhang and Xiao Liu and waved to them.

"Let's go and cool down with Auntie."

Xiao Zhang and Xiao Liu instinctively looked at Wei Yang, who smiled and nodded: "Come together, thank you for taking care of my mother just now."

Wei Yang didn’t know what was going on with these two little palace maids, but since his mother called him, he just followed them.

“It should be.”

Xiao Liu was timid and didn't dare to reply, but Xiao Zhang was able to chat with Wei Yang.

Wei Yang's car was not at the shooting site, but Wei Yang made a phone call and the driver drove the car over. It happened to be a nanny business car, which was more than enough to seat these people.

Just as Wang Yunping and a few others got on the car, a few people came over from the main hall. When Wei Yang saw them, he got off the car and talked to them, pointing towards the car from time to time.

During the previous visit to the set, Wang Yunping just followed and watched from the side, and did not reveal her identity much, so not many people knew her. Therefore, except for Hu Ge and a few others, she did not know other people in the crew very well.

Not to mention Xiao Liu and Xiao Zhang, it was their first day here and they had never dealt with the Blue Whale before, so they couldn't tell who was who.

Only Assistant Xiao Zhao knew them and introduced them to Wang Yunping: "The fat one is the producer, the one wearing a hat is the director, and there are two assistant directors..."

Wang Yunping didn't care much about these things. Xiao Zhang and Xiao Liu did look at them a few more times, but these "big shots" were a bit far away from them. Instead of caring about them, they might as well enjoy the spacious and luxurious nanny car.

More than ten minutes later, Wei Yang got in the car with his hair a little wet. He wiped the sweat with a tissue while explaining to Wang Yunping.

"It's too hot today. I talked to the crew producer and asked them to go back to the main hall to see if they can install some big fans and provide more ice cream and cold drinks."

In fact, the welfare of the Blue Whale crew is quite good, with ice cream and cold drinks available, but priority is given to the cast and staff.

Extras are temporary workers and belong to the lowest level of the crew. Although they also provide a part, it is not so perfect.

Wang Yunping had just arrived and had no experience. She didn't know the crew had these things, so she asked for a box lunch. In fact, if they had arrived earlier, they could have gotten some cold drinks or ice cream.

As for the fans, it’s not that the crew wants to save money on electricity, but in this situation, a small fan will be useless, and a large fan will be troublesome to move around, and sometimes it will easily be exposed, affecting filming.

No one said anything, and the stagehands certainly wouldn't cause trouble for themselves. Most of the time, it was the staff and extras who suffered, and there was no place to raise any opinions, so they could only bear it.

So this is the most ironic thing about it.

Those who have the right to speak, with their air conditioners and fans blowing, don’t think about these things at all. For those who are truly suffering and have personal feelings, it is useless for them to speak.

It was because Wang Yunping, who was on a "secret visit", was seen by Wei Yang today, otherwise the situation would not have improved.

To be honest, this situation is a bit unpleasant, but Wei Yang did not get angry, nor did he intend to punish or reprimand the person in charge.

As a manager, Wei Yang has long understood that such things are difficult to avoid, and there is no point in making a fuss about it. Moreover, from a realistic point of view, the other party did nothing wrong in this matter.

Given the cost budget and logistical manpower of the crew, they can give appropriate preferential treatment to extras, but it is nonsense to give them too high a salary.

Instead of spending all this effort, it would be better to just give the extras some extras some money as a reward for their hard work. It’s simpler and easier, and they will definitely agree.

Reality is reality. Wei Yang is not the overbearing president in novels, movies and TV dramas who would scold the person in charge as soon as he saw his mother suffering.

With a shake of his tiger body and a wave of his hand, he cleared up all the long-standing problems, and all the extras lived a comfortable and happy life, and everyone praised him.

It looks great, but where does the money come from?

What should we do if the budget of the production crew is not enough? Why should the responsible person bear this humiliation when he is dedicated to his work? How much manpower and material resources will be wasted when the superiors just talk and give blind orders? Just to please your mother, many staff members have to eat the spoils. Isn't it heartbreaking?

The cost and resources are not high, but it is hard to say what the effect will be if we slightly optimize the working environment of the crew, but it is better than knowing that it is wrong but doing nothing.

"We should get a fan or something. It's too stuffy in there."

Wang Yunping approved of her son's attentiveness. Wei Yang didn't want to discuss these matters with his mother. While eating, he asked about her daily life in Hengdian.

Because Xiao Liu and Xiao Zhang were there, Wang Yunping did not talk much about Zhao Liying, but talked more about her feelings about coming to Hengdian.

Most of them were talking about filming. It seemed that today's experience was an extremely special day for Wang Yunping, who had been running a small shop and raising children all her life.

"Oh, I have one more line. Listen to see if I'm reading it correctly."

As Wang Yunping was talking, she suddenly remembered a line in the character she played.

She practiced this line many times last night, and even performed it many times in front of Xiao Zhao, but it was her first time filming a scene after all, and she was still a little nervous. She knew her son was more capable, so she thought of asking Wei Yang to help her check it.

"Come over here and let me see."

Wei Yang has taught so many actors that he can’t count them on one hand, and many popular stars were trained by him. But today, when facing Wang Yunping's question, he was actually a little nervous, which was rare for him.

There’s nothing I can do, she’s my biological mother, and the bloodline suppresses me!

Wang Yunping remained calm, waited for a moment, and then spoke in a resounding voice with a righteous look on his face.

"Your Majesty, Queen, I also think what Miss Cheng said makes sense."

It's just this one line, probably expressing support for the heroine in the hall. It's just one line, a close-up shot of one or two seconds, and below are the other actors and extras.

“…”

You know what, Wei Yang thought his mother’s acting was really good.

The eye expressions are all there, the tone and lines are also on point, and even though Wang Yunping usually speaks with a slight Zaoshi dialect accent, she spoke this line in standard Mandarin.

It can be seen that Xiao Zhao probably helped with rehearsals a lot in private. At least for a supporting role with a few seconds of screen time, Ms. Wang is already very qualified.

But seeing his mother looking at him eagerly, Wei Yang acknowledged the compliment while still giving a few words of advice.

"...Your words are still a little too tense. It would be better if you could relax a little."

Wang Yunping was relieved to receive the recognition from her son, a great expert. However, as the shooting was confirmed to be in the afternoon, she couldn't help but hide her nervousness. While waiting in the backstage, she kept muttering to herself, fearing that she would forget the lines.

Wei Yang was so taken aback by her that he almost called out "Empress" when he saw director Lin Yufen.

While Wang Yunping was waiting for the set to film, Wei Yang took on the job of agent and assistant, carrying bags and fanning the audience. At the same time, he also did not forget to negotiate with the crew to fight for the interests of the "artist".

The main purpose was to ask director Lin Yufen to keep a two-second close-up when editing the film for Wang Yunping, so that there would be a chance to take a screenshot.

He knows himself. He knows that his mother has made a movie and she will definitely show off to her relatives and friends.

If the close-up is too short and cannot be captured by a screenshot, then today's suffering will be in vain and she will not be able to sleep well.

Lin Yufen had known Guiyang for so many years, but this was the first time she saw Boss Wei being so humble and servile, and she couldn't help but make a joke.

"I think this teacher is very dedicated. I'll invite him to play a role in the next movie."

Manager Wei said, "Forget it. We are too expensive. You can't afford us."

The main actors' scenes were mostly shot in the morning, and the afternoon was mainly spent on some background boards and scenes for extras.

Ms. Wang Yunping waited for more than two hours and finally succeeded in giving her wonderful performance, which was passed in one take. She was considered one of the best performances among the extras present.

Wei Yang waited for her to finish filming, changed her costumes, and greeted a few familiar friends and subordinates.

Wei Yang also had not forgotten the two little palace maids, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Liu. After all, they had known each other before.

He told the assistant director that if there were any small roles they could be arranged for them later, since these two didn't even show their faces, so it wouldn't affect their future appearances.

Afterwards, Wei Yang took his mother back to the hotel, and the latter still felt a little reluctant to leave.

"Liying underestimated me and arranged a scene for me that was not satisfying at all."

Wei Yang didn't expect his mother to be so excited. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "If you want to take some photos, I'll ask someone to add some scenes for you later."

"No, no, I just said it, it really makes me unable to take pictures."

Although he said that it was not enough, Wang Yunping was the first to get scared when he heard about the additional scenes. It was simply a case of Ye Gong craving for dragons.

Wei Yang was just saying that Wang Yunping performed well, all thanks to Xiao Zhao's rehearsal.

It's no problem to play a small role and show her face, but if she has to play a supporting role, the workload will be too heavy. Neither Wei Yang nor Xiao Zhao has time to be her teacher every day.

However, if Ms. Wang really wants to act, she can train in advance when she has time. It is not impossible to arrange a small supporting role...
